Two Lighf.Weights Have n Vic
ious Encounter in Westchester
County.
New YORK, March 11.-Eugene Horn
bacher, 1l9 pounds, and Nat Morris. 100
pounds, fought to finish in Westchester
county tonight with two-ounce gloves.
Round One-Hornbacher was first, leading
and landing u heavy left-handor on Morris
mouth. cutting his lip severely. The latter,
however, rushed for his man, and got in sew
eral savage body blows. Slugging closed the
round.
Round Second-Hornbacher at once dashed
at Morris, and, swinging his right on Morris
jaw, knocked him down. Morris scrambled
up and went at Hornbaeher like II crazy wind
mill, and the second closed in Il tangle of
Il rms that resulted in little damage.
Round Thiid-BOth men came up cau-
tiously and spared for wind. Morris landed
Oh the other mans jaw, Hornbacher counter
ing heavily on the body. Then followed some
ln-hghtlng, during which Norris was crowd ed
to the ropes, and, while ducking from blow
by Hornbacher, was savagely upper-cutted
and Knocked clean through the ropes.
Round Four-Hornbache hunted Morris all
about the ring, humping his body and face
in savage glee. Morris was on the defensive
and the round ended by Morris being knocked
down by straight right-hander. From this
point to the eighth round Hornbacher slugged
Morris with one or both hands, about when
and where he chose.
Round Eighth-Hornbacher darted over to
Morris corner and arrived before Morris had
fairly stood up. He hit Morris squarey in
the face with his right, and Morris sat down.
When he arose Hornbacher again smashed
him full in the face and Knocked him Hat
upon the floor. Morris got up, but it was
thump, thump all the while, until Morris, q
third time in this round, was knocked down
and time was called. Morris said his hand
was hurt and refused to furnish any more
practice for Hornbacher, who took the purse

The Trick Did Not Work.

1t was generally circulated around the
street yesterday that G. E. Robb, the city
ticket agent of the Wisconsin Central road,
had been caught in the very act; that the
other roads had the evidence against him so
conclusive tnat there could be no question
whatever as to his selling a ticket at cut
rate. The chances were that RObb would
probably have to go behind the bars for his
rate-cutting propensitles. The other roads
told the story that Robb had sold a gentle
man secOnd-class ticket and bamboozled
the purchaser into the belief that it was
tirSt-claSs ticket. The truth of the matter
was. to cut the story Short that some of
the other roads sought to ''set up a job" on
Robb, but his years of experience In the
Manitoba and the Milwaukee & ST. Paul
ticket offices did not 60 for nothing. and
the job did not work at all, except as a kind
of boomerang against the projectors. A
''spotter" went into the Wisconsin Central
office and was suspected to be such as
soon as he entered. He had not
learned the lesson very well and so
asked for the lowest ticket to the East. To
this Robb replied that the lowest ticket to
the point named would be S26. This sum
coming within the figures given him. the
spotter thought he had the ticket man and
said he would take it. 1t was accordingly
prepared, punched, the money paid and the
ticket delivered. The spotter was satisfied
that he had the evidence all right and a
clean case against the ticket seller. He had
not properly learned his lesson. When he
got back to those who sent him out it was
found that the spotter had bought second
class ticket and paid second-class price
and got what he called for, the cheapest
ticket to be had to the point named, but no
rates had been cut. 1t was a bad failure.

ALBERT LEA, March 11.-About two
years ago Victor Colby, Danish professor
of music, came here and entered the dentist
Office of DR.. w. G. Merrill, where he con-
tlnued for some time. He was fine pian-
lst and affable. though not used to the
practical side of life. He was joined in a
few months by his wife, who came direct
from Denmark, and who. when she first
came, could speak but very little English.
She was young of medium siZe of perfect
form and carriage; she had pearly COM
plexion. bewitching black eyes, and, in
fact. was very fascinating woman. She
evidently was also of good breeding. was
very high spirited, and mentally much su-
perior to her very devoted better half. Last
year they went to Minneapolis. where he
established himself and where he still con-
tinues IN the practice of dentistry; but he
is now plunged in cave of gloom over the
sudden dslOyalty of his charming wife, who
last week, without warning, deserted him
and fled to parts unknown with hand
somer man. The name of the latter is not
known, but he is understood TO be one
nearer the conception Of such woman of
what complete man ought to be than is
her diScom fitted husband.

WASHINGTON, March 11.-Civil Service
Commissioners Lyman and Oberly were in
their offices to-day, having returned from
Philadelphia, where for several days they
have been engaged in investigating charges
against Postmaster Harrity, relating to ap-
pointments in his Office. They will return
to Philadelphia early next week and resume
the investigation. Meanwhile Postmaster
Harrity is to prepare statement concern
ing his administration of the office. includ-
ing lists of appointments and removals, the
names of persons employed i'll the office
when he took possession, of those now en-
ployed, how many appointments he has
made to excepted" places, etc. The COM
missioners took considerable testimony, all
OF which will be published with the report
of their conclusions in the matter. Mr..
Lyman could say nothing as to what the
result of the investigation would be. When
the commissioners return to Philadelphia
next week they may take additional test-
mony, if it is found that points in MI.

and Judge Cooley. of Michigan. the receiver
of the Wabash road. 1t is difficult for any
one to guess anywhere near to the other
members of the commission than the two
named. and daily calculations are upset
in the most ruthless manner"
Among those well-informed on the
subject there seems to be no
doubt that Messrs. Morrison and Cooley are
sure to be appointed, but there certainty
ends. Another name that has been sug-

Knocked outby Black Frank.

The fight at the Olympic last night be-
tween Black Frank and Andy Goldsmith
was good display of pugilism, particularly
Oh the part of Frank, and resulted in
clean Knockout of Goldsmith at the end of
the fourth round. Goldsmith is heavy
man, weighing $50 pounds, and is built we'll
about the shoulders, but he was soft and
exercised no science whatever. The fight
ing weight of Black Frank was 159 pounds.
In the first round Frank fought easy. and
the combatants took their seats after about
all even exchange of blows. In the second
round Frank struck several times for Gold
smiths stomach. but was well stopped
by counter blows. The lighting

was fast and hard. Frank finally drove
Goldsmith over against the ropes. Gold
smith clinched, and they took the center.
When they went at it again Frank rushed
and landed some severe blows square in
Goldsmith's lace. Goldsmith again clinched
and threw Frank heavily to the floor.
When time was called Goldsmith evidently
had the worst of it. and was badly winded.
Frank came up fresh in the fourth round,
and rushed hard. He drove Goldsmith to
the ropes again. and struck some terrible

the prospects are that the road will soon be
bOckaded.
